OUR GOAL
This Giving Tuesday, our ministry has set a goal of $40,000 to support CCH retreats for a whole year! Retreats are the heart of our ministry — they give students a chance to step away from the pressures of life on campus, encounter God in prayer, experience His mercy in the sacraments, and build genuine friendships rooted in faith!
MY STORY
On retreat, students come to know Christ in ways that truly change their lives. Some encounter Him in confession or adoration for the first time in years, while others find strength to live their faith more deeply on campus. Retreats with CCH have had a tangible impact on my personal faith journey. I have experienced His peace in prayer, because retreats are a safe space to experience true rest and the loving embrace of the Father. I grew in courage to live my faith openly, and how I can turn to Jesus in moments of fear, in order to "ponder, not panic" (Fr. Philip Nolan from "The Difference Christ Makes" CCH retreat in Fall 2025).

HOW YOU CAN MAKE AN IMPACT:
Would you consider making a gift through my page today to help us reach this goal? Your generosity makes it possible for students like me to encounter Jesus more deeply and share His love with our campus. Thank you so much for your support and prayers!
Your gift is more than a donation — it is a way of joining us on mission, helping students encounter Christ on retreat and go forth on campus and beyond as His lights.
WE HAVE A GENEROUS $10,000 MATCH!
We have a generous $10,000 challenge gift that will be unlocked as we hit milestones throughout advanced giving and the giving day! Half of the gift will be released once we reach $10,000 and the other half will be released once we reach $25,000.
If we reach the full $40,000, we’ll be able to make our Spring Retreat free for all students, and also keep retreat costs lower in the future so that retreats can continue to be affordable and accessible for us! Thank you and God bless!
